# std::chrono::nonexistent_local_time

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | chrono

Defined in header `<chrono>` |  |
class nonexistent_local_time; |  | (since C++20)

Defines a type of object to be thrown as exception to report that an attempt was made to convert a nonexistent std::chrono::local_time to a std::chrono::sys_time without specifying a std::chrono::choose (such as `choose::earliest` or `choose::latest`).

This exception is thrown by std::chrono::time_zone::to_sys and functions that call it (such as the constructors of std::chrono::zoned_time that take a std::chrono::local_time).

(constructor) | constructs the exception object (public member function)
operator= | replaces the exception object (public member function)
what | returns the explanatory string (public member function)

## std::chrono::nonexistent_local_time::nonexistent_local_time

template< class Duration > nonexistent_local_time( const std::chrono::local_time<Duration>& tp, const std::chrono::local_info& i ); | (1) | (since C++20)
nonexistent_local_time( const nonexistent_local_time& other ) noexcept; | (2) | (since C++20)

Constructs the exception object.

1) The explanatory string returned by `what()` is equivalent to that produced by `os.str()` after the following code:

    std::ostringstream os;
    os << tp << " is in a gap between\n"
       << std::chrono::local_seconds(i.first.end.time_since_epoch()) + i.first.offset
       << ' ' << i.first.abbrev << " and\n"
       << std::chrono::local_seconds(i.second.begin.time_since_epoch()) + i.second.offset
       << ' ' << i.second.abbrev
       << " which are both equivalent to\n"
       << i.first.end << " UTC";

The behavior is undefined if i.result != std::chrono::local_info::nonexistent.
2) Copy constructor. If *this and other both have dynamic type `std::chrono::nonexistent_local_time` then std::strcmp(what(), other.what()) == 0.

### Parameters

tp | - | the time point for which conversion was attempted
i | - | a std::chrono::local_info describing the result of the conversion attempt
other | - | another `nonexistent_local_time` to copy

### Exceptions

May throw std::bad_alloc

### Notes

Because copying a standard library class derived from `std::exception` is not permitted to throw exceptions, this message is typically stored internally as a separately-allocated reference-counted string.

## std::chrono::nonexistent_locale_time::operator=

nonexistent_locale_time& operator=( const nonexistent_locale_time& other ) noexcept; |  | (since C++20)

Assigns the contents with those of other.If *this and other both have dynamic type `std::chrono::nonexistent_locale_time` then std::strcmp(what(), other.what()) == 0 after assignment.

### Parameters

other | - | another exception object to assign with

### Return value

*this

## std::chrono::nonexistent_locale_time::what

virtual const char* what() const noexcept; |  | (since C++20)

Returns the explanatory string.

### Return value

Pointer to an implementation-defined null-terminated string with explanatory information. The string is suitable for conversion and display as a std::wstring. The pointer is guaranteed to be valid at least until the exception object from which it is obtained is destroyed, or until a non-const member function (e.g. copy assignment operator) on the exception object is called.

The returned string is encoded with the ordinary literal encoding during constant evaluation. | (since C++26)

### Notes

Implementations are allowed but not required to override `what()`.

## Inherited from std::runtime_error

## Inherited from std::exception

### Member functions

(destructor) [virtual] | destroys the exception object (virtual public member function of `std::exception`)
what [virtual] | returns an explanatory string (virtual public member function of `std::exception`)
